  1. The mood is taut and tense as the final six episodes of Top Boy play out, with Dushane and Sully vying for control of the East London drug trade and the Summerhouse estate existing at the center of a changing social climate.
  2. It would be funny if it wasn’t utterly terrifying.
  3. Primo is a fun, feelgood family sitcom that shows a type of family that we rarely see on TV.
  4. If you’ve ever wondered why you never won more than free french fries while playing Monopoly, you’ll want to watch this docuseries.
  5. Dreaming Whilst Black is a funny take on how following your ambitions is much harder when you’re Black and facing a world of institutional racism, but the show doesn’t hesitate to give its main characters their own ambition-stalling quirks, as well.
  6. Solar Opposites is weird enough in its own unique way to separate it from all the other animated comedies out there, and its anarchic vibe might be just the ridiculous distraction you’re looking for right now.
  7. What this version of He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe lacks in nostalgia it more than makes up for with smart dialogue, good CGI, and its ability to start building the world of Eternia from scratch with a compelling story.
  8. It’ll be an entertaining May the Fourth binge, and likely an engrossing one for Star Wars fans of all levels.
  9. Kite Man: Hell Yeah! is a STREAM IT, especially if you’re already versed in the brash and bloodsoaked goings-on of the Harley Quinn animated series. This is a fun, foul-mouthed send-up of the superhero genre with expressive voice acting and a gleeful murderous streak that guarantees its NSFW-ness.
  10. The Hillside Strangler: Devil In Disguise is a straightforward retelling of the famous serial killer case. But it definitely gives information and perspectives that people who paid attention to the case four decades ago might not have either gotten or remembered.
  11. Yes, Bad Mothers feels like a bit of a rehash of the first season of Desperate Housewives, including a murder mystery. But the sharp dialogue and excellent cast make the show a fun watch, despite the fact that it doesn’t quite feel fresh.
  12. If you’re a fan of the JU-ON or The Grudge franchises, JU-ON: Origins will help fill in some blanks with a well-drawn story and interesting characters. But even if you’re not, the stories told in this series will be intriguing to any horror fan.
  13. Anything is possible. And that’s what makes this wild ride of a show so endlessly enjoyable, even in its third installment.
  14. Celeste Barber is funny as Liv. ... We’re hoping that the support around her, from Amy and her husband, Liv’s mom and brother, as well as others, will get a little more character development. ... We’ve got confidence in writers Amy Stewart, Nick Coyle and Romina Accurso that they’ll do just that.
  15. The first episode of House Of Guinness shows more than tells, and that’s because of Steven Knight’s expert skills in making his characters vibrant right out of the gate.
  16. Even with an occasionally clunky script, Inventing Anna is ridiculously watchable, aided in part by another scene-stealing performance from Julia Garner and a top-notch ensemble.
  17. If you’re a fan of The Masked Singer, this show should be just as fun to watch. ... [Robinson] moves the show along without trying to center the spotlight on himself. Jeong is still at his most annoying, which we hate to say because we’re fans, but there’s also a reason why he’s the only carryover from the original show; he’s divisive like a Simon Cowell, but in a happy sort of way.
  18. This hour feels like a reset. .... Getting to peer behind the proverbial curtain of fame and fortune (it’s quite something to hear a comedian reveal themselves to be a multimillionaire!) feels more special when the famous person isn’t dropping a lot of names, just truth bombs.
  19. I Know This Much Is True is an emotionally harrowing tale, but Ruffalo’s performance is so remarkable that you’ll find hope in the relationship between the Birdsey brothers.
  20. Could the pacing of Prehistoric Planet be a little better? Sure. But the presentation of realistic-looking prehistoric animals in real-life environments is stunning to watch, especially for those with 4K TVs.
  21. We felt instantly immersed in this 18th century Pacific island world, before contact by Westerners, where omens and prophecies are all powerful and the stars above are as important a guide as what the land and sea can give.
  22. Star Wars: Visions has something for every Star Wars fan.
  23. Karen Pirie continues to be a refreshing detective series because of its enthusiastic main character and format that really lets the show’s writers dig into the characters both past and present.
  24. History Of Swear Words packs a lot of information into each 20 minute segment. And though the segments stray from their respective topics a bit, everyone looks like they’re having a cathartic good time talking about the biggest curse words in the English language.
  25. Once you understand the pain that’s underneath the twisted viewpoints of Deb, Josie and Billie, you realize how subversively funny Such Brave Girls really is. This show is definitely a case where the unlikable becomes likable because of how they channel their inner turmoil into really funny comedy.
  26. From the setting to the food that is integral to the plot to the performances of the show’s leads, the series is a feast for the senses.
  27. Invincible continues to tell very human stories about Mark and the superheroes of the GDA, highlighting the main storylines of the season while keeping other stories cooking with a very good cast of celebrity voices.
  28. Daniels has succeeded to make the afterlife look like hell in Upload, even if it’s a hell with colorful foliage. And that’s just the kind of show we want to see right about now. But we also know he knows how to build a funny ensemble we’ll care about, and he’s on the way to doing that after the first episode.
  29. Star Trek: Below Decks is back for more character-driven hijinks in its fourth season, and with a host of innovative new ways to assert itself alongside established canon and within the successful expanded Trek universe.
  30. The dad stuff may hit home for many viewers. But what’ll definitely stand out to comedy fans is Birbiglia’s description of his invitation to join Jim Gaffigan, Chris Rock, Conan O’Brien and other comedians on a trip to the Vatican last summer to meet Pope Francis. There’s fun to be had just in learning more about this. But the comedian also takes this moment to hammer home how his views of the church differed from those of his parents, and how he’ll still zing the Catholics for their multi-generation molestation scandal
